    Beat representin?

    That depends... what's your job description? Someone who introduces people? The beatmaker's manager? The Producer? Do you know promoters? Are you one?... Getting them togheter can lead to you making money, but you have to do more than just introduce them, imo... feel me?

    Switching Styles

    I'd say to try to change the sounds you use, the tempo, everything... so it fits what you wanna do. At 1st, it's gonna sound like a mix of what you did and what you wanna do (which is good too) and, after a while, you'll get there. Also, I like to put myself in a certain mood, depending of...

    A video explains the world's most important 6-sec drum loop (Amen Break)

    Thanx, now, i really feel I learned something interesting... keep those coming! Knowledge is power! If there is still someone with the rights of that song... he's gonna be filthy rich... I wonder James Brown got some $$$ for Funky Drummer?

    compression masters outthere?

    Yeah... adding too much compression can cut the dymamics of a beat... and some people use too much of it. You can actually hear and see when a beat is too compressed. (I don't have a specific beat/album in mind... anyone?)

    recording vocals in mono?

    When you're on a program to mix your vocals with your beat (like Adobe Audition, Pro Tools, or FL Studio...), the whole beat is supposed to be stereo, but the vocal will be in mono. The mix of both will be in STEREO... You can pan the vocals left and right if you want...

    compression masters outthere?

    ^^^^Really? I dont know about that one, could you explain what you mean by that? Cuz, to me, you compress depending on the your personal preference and the dynamics of the volume... if you want to change the dynamics, you use a compressor, and that's for any kind of sound, in front or in the back...

    compression masters outthere?

    Ther eare a lot of compressors out there , but my favorite one is the GComp from G-VST... I know that the one from the Waves bundle is the one most poeple like, but what I like about the GComp is that it shows you what your wavshape is like before and after compression...

    recording vocals in mono?

    You should ask yourself... why record in stereo when I have a guy spitting his lyrics on 1 mic... there is no need for stereo recording, a mouth can only send out 1 sound at a time... and your mic will only record the same signal twice if you record in stereo with one mic. That's why you should...

    compression masters outthere?

    I dont use compression on every track. Compression is used to shape the volume and It can be used to give more thump to your drums. Simply put, what it actually does is to quickly lower the volum of your instrument (that's what you want your compressor to do if you wanty thump...) Of you put a...

    pitch vs. tempo

    when you say sample, you mean a loop or just a plain note taken from a song... Well, since you're talking about tempo, I'm guessing you're refering to a loop. S, in that case, that's easy... there is a knob that does exactly what you're asking... Look in the pic I attached and try to figure...

    How Do I Make The Sample I Want For My Song Play Throught The Whole Thing?

    Wow!... that's really a beginner's question... all right. Actually, for your 1st question, you have several ways of doing what you want... but I gotta ask, how long have you been using FL Studio? Do you know what the Playlist is? Do you know the difference between a pattern and a song...

    electronica

    Well, I think FL Studio is actually more for that kind of music than for hiphop... most featured songs in the program are techno, dance trance, etc....

    the equipment the Neptunes use

    ...mmmmmh I've seen pics of his studio and read an article on Pharrel and I'm pretty shure he uses more than just the Triton... maybe most sounds can be found there, but I'm pretty sure it's not ALL the sounds...

    Another damn MPC question.......

    ...that's what I figured, but then the sounds are not going in the mpc, just the midi infos... but then you could be right... I dont know. The book (and MissCC) talked about local control, but I dont know what's that all about
